Design of an active reconfigurable 2R joint
(Springer, 2019-06-14)
The increasing flexibility requirements in the manufacturing processes has led to the development of novel reconfigurable mechanisms to be implemented in ma-chine heads and tables. This is the case of the reconfigurable ...
An active/passive joint for reconfiguration applications
(Springer, 2019-09-07)
In this paper, an active/passive reconfigurable 2R joint is presented. Direct and inverse kinematic problems and the force transmission are considered. The advantages of the current design show its superiority with respect ...
Design and Testing of Two Haptic Devices Based on Reconfigurable 2R Joints
(MDPI, 2021-12-30)
per presents the design and testing of two haptic devices, based on reconfigurable 2R joints: an active 2R spherical mechanism-based joint and a differential gear-based joint. Based on our previous works, in which the ...
Improving Skills in Mechanism and Machine Science Using GIM Software
(MDPI, 2021-08-26)
The field of education has evolved significantly in recent years as it has incorporated new pedagogical methodologies. Many of these methodologies are designed to encourage students’ participation in the learning process. ...
Kinematic Analysis of three degrees of freedom planar parallel continuum mechanisms
(Elsevier, 2023-07)
Parallel continuum mechanisms are a type of compliant mechanisms comprising a rigid end-effector connected to a fixed frame by flexible and slender elements in a closed-kinematic morphology, being their flexibility the ...
Dynamics and mechanical vibrations. Complementing the theory with virtual simulation and experimental analysis
(Springer, 2018-09-21)
The purpose of the present work is to show how the complex theory in subjects related to
Mechanism and Machine Theory can be reinforced with some practicals in which the students can perform
virtual simulation of the ...
Multioperation capacity of parallel manipulators basing on generic kinematic chain approach
(Elsevier, 2017-06-07)
The idea of designing multioperation mechanisms capable of performing different tasks has gained prominence in the last years. These mechanisms, commonly called reconfig- urable mechanisms, have the ability to change their ...
Parallel manipulators: practical applications and kinematic design criteria. Towards the modular reconfigurable robots
(Springer, 2017-06-10)
Modern robotic manipulators play an essential role in industry, developing several tasks in an easy way, enhancing the accuracy of the final product and reducing the executing time. Also they can be found in other fields ...
On Constraints and Parasitic Motions of a Tripod Parallel Continuum Manipulator
(MDPI, 2023-01-06)
A parallel continuum manipulator (PCM) is a mechanism of closed-loop morphology with flexible elements such that their deformation contributes to its mobility. Flexible hexapods are six-degrees-of-freedom (DoF) fully ...
